What the fuck!?!?! Please tell me you are being sarcastic! Do you REALLY think that Arnold Air Society is more badass than FDT? Do you REALLY think that Arnold Air Society is badass at all?

I don't know why they wrote about FDT, Arnold Air Society is far more badass... I heard Harding couldn't take it and washed out

Good work, FDT!!! Excellent show at Tulane (as always). We know how tough it is to make FDT the best damn drill team in the country. In spite of how the previous poster feels about FDT, the rest of us are proud of you all. Keep it going with FDT '12.
If AAS ever wins a national championship I'm sure we will see it on the front page of the Batt, and we will be just as proud of them for representing A&M so well. Now, 'that' would be redass. Until then, this is your day to boast. Way to go!

Way to go CTs!!!
As an active duty AF officer and assuming an Arnold Air Society member wrote that letter, I think some people need to learn a bit more officership before becoming officers. Comments like those do not reflect well up on you or your organization...or its parent org: the Air Force. The initial response to that comment also isn't that helpful and needs to be toned down, IMHO.

Hey - glad to see the Team back on its feet after the hic-up of a few years ago. Congrads guys on the good showing the last 4 years.
But don't forget us old guys - we won a second and five first in a row at Washington DC nationals back in 1966 - 1972. My brother was an advisor for the first team to go to DC in 66, he was guideon bearer for Class 69 team that won at Purdue resulting in the first invite to DC. I carried guideon for the second Nat'l Champs in 1969 and was advisor for the 3rd Champs in 1970. We believe we are the only brothers to ever carry the guideon for the team.
I noticed from the films posted on the net that the STYLE of drill has completely changed from the "fast" type we used in the 60's to the "slow" type typified now. Can anybody tell me when that happened and why? Just curious.
Anyway - keep it up Fish!
